The Unworld to Come. Imagining an Otherwise…


“If this world is as shitty as we think it is, then why repair it!”1 demands Jack Halberstam, pointing to the layers of brokenness that render life across this planet increasingly precarious—or nearly impossible. In response, The Unworld to Come takes up climate change as a poly-crisis with ideological dimensions, featuring artists who attempt to “imagine an otherwise” within the entangled struggles for climate, economic and social justice, & beyond.
